China-based
global mobile and lifestyle brand Xiaomi continues its premise of delivering powerful
and engaging mobile devices that are slated to cater to the digital lifestyle
needs of its Filipino customers with the recent launch of its newest midrange
marvel, the Xiaomi Mi 8, as well as its latest budget-friendly Redmi 6 and Redmi
6A.
The
Mi 8 is an interesting midrange smartphone that sports AI-powered dual rear
cameras and runs on an AI-powered Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor. On the
other hand, the Redmi 6 and 6A have similar specs such as a Mediatek Helio P22
processor, 5.45-inch HD+ display with 18:9 aspect ratio, and 3000 mAh battery
life but the former has dual rear cameras with AI capabilities that can make
taking selfies and photos more tedious as usual. Anyway, these three will
become available in Mi Authorized Stores in the Philippines by August but any
of the three can be availed online via Shopee considering that you have missed
its Flash Sale on the three.
If

market, then check out their spec sheets and make your own first impressions
